Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Takes a bit more work than opening an umbrella. Best practice is to insert the tensioning rods into the softbox first. Insert the second rod directly across at the 6 o'clock position.

It works great. Anyways, for the money spent, it’s better than i expected. Item as advertised. It has nothing to do with the end result, but it is definitely part of the user experience.

Everything looks pretty durable. The construction seems hood and is sturdy when built. The quality of light is also super pleasing.

    Kind of a pain in the rear to break down so i just keep it together which isnt very practical either

    Everything feels super solid i wish i would have started with this instead of cheaper crap…you do get what you pay for


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So it does take some strength to put it together and i would not recommend on breaking it down


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I almost bought a bigger softbox but im glad i didnt


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This one is certainly big enough i have to turn it sideways to fit it through doorways
